mini-mini rave on LI
« on: April 05, 2011, 10:22:00 AM »
I'm going to have a few guys over this Saturday, about noon, to hear the new Apogees. I've cleared it with the wife (it's actually my birthday so she really couldn't say "no") to have  a small group over. So first come first serve, I can probably host about 6-10 people.

PM me or post here if interested and I'll send you the address and contact info.

Enjoy,
Bob

Sure, but summer is golf time for me so I can't be sure when that might be.

Never heard an Apogee.

Just got Back from Bobs house. I was very impressed with the Apogees. They disappear and had very good imaging.They were integrated very well with his Rel subwoofer. He did a fantastic job restoring these. I enjoyed his turntable very much and preferred it more than his Ayre cd player.Hopefully he will post pics. We had a suprise visit from Mike McCullen :thumb:.

Bob thanks for the afternoon. Your wife's cooking was great :drool:.I don't know how you stay so slim. Your daughters paintings were top notch. Great family and thanks again :thumb:
